Moments Worth Listening For

the youthful clarity of her voice on 'Satisfied Mind' before the years added their famous gravel

the rhythmic, percussive acoustic strumming that drives the title track into a hypnotic blues shuffle

the interplay between the fiddle and her vocal melody on 'Jambalaya' creating a front-porch jam feel
